The New Haven quartet have been at it for 15 years, and the “newest” lineup (now at it for well over a decade; vocalist\/guitarist Dan Greene, bassist Rick Omonte, guitarist Kryssi Battalene and drummer Ross Menze) have firmly grasped what it takes to fry brains; achingly beautiful melodies buoyed by a life raft of white-hot guitar scree and mind-melting feedback. “World What World” is the band’s eighth album and third for Trouble In Mind Records.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e “World What World” is the newest chapter of the group’s continued explorations and efforts to refine their sound. The lyrics of “World What World”s songs all imply a protagonist on a quest; the title itself is an implied query with no question mark; is it a question, or a statement?. The one-two punch of opener “I Wanna See The Sun” and “Final Sunset” lay out what’s in store; Crazy Horse-inspired sandpaper melodies sit comfortably next to improvised, PSF-influenced six-string ragers.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e The group performs together effortlessly and telepathically, subverting the loud\/quiet\/loud dynamic that has saturated independent music since the late-Eighties. The loud parts and quiet parts are like waves; indistinguishable from each other, creating a fluid dynamism and intensity that swallows the listener up in its current, sweeping it toward oblivion. Hyperbole, you say? Watch out for midway through “Then The Moon” when the tune’s lilting waltz pivots into a casually blistering solo by Battalene before fading into the melancholic “Haunted Eyes” - beckoning you with a mournful sidelong glance. Side Two opens with “Staggering With A Lantern”, an elegant, lumbering instrumental improvisation again showcasing the synergistic shredding of the group’s guitarists. The sticky lyrical hooks and sideways jangle of “Way Back To The World” and “The Last City”s midnight-hour, mellow singe come next, before concluding “World What World”s journey with “Flock of Swans”. The song is the perfect closer and culmination of the album’s mission statement. The subjects that populate Greene’s songs and visual imagery augment his elegiac lyrics, awash in magical realism and fantastic symbolism; knights, fighters, dragons, masks. Poetic missives are launched from the heart straight into the neural pathways, guided by the rhythm section’s otherworldly chemistry and Battalene’s masterful control over her instrument. Mountain Movers have been at it too long to care about acclaim. They do it because the music calls out to them, and they let it carry them away.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eTracklist\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e1. I Wanna See The Sun\u003cbr\u003e 2.

Born in London, playing six nights a week, experimenting in an abandoned space in the city’s docklands. Constructing music live and improvised for endless hours, embracing sonic hypnosis. Each loop a twist on the last, new forms arising in real time. Circle Sky are operatives of their own station, building emotional, human music with tomorrow’s electronic equipment. The analogue warmth of the past meets the most advanced digital technologies. This is music to get lost in, melodies to sing, music to dance to. Circle Sky live is a swirl of pulsing lights, racks of LEDs, wires, synched vortexes exploding in technicolour, fronted by an entity of unknown origin. They strive unapologetically for something beautiful. There’s something holistic about their manipulation of voice, tone, reverb and space. A new journey into melodic synthesised music. Circle Sky.

So how can a voice so familiar to others still seem foreign to its owner? On The Sound of Yourself, McCaughan’s second release under his own name, he explores that question fully, shooting his voice through a prism and refracting it across these songs in new and rewarding ways.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e In January 2021, McCaughan found himself at his home studio in Chapel Hill North Carolina staring down a clean slate after wrapping a film score and several other music projects. His thought process was simple: “Each day is blurring into the next, so what are we doing today? How can I disrupt this? I think what resulted was a theme of subdued… ‘joy’ is the wrong word, but it’s at least comforting if not propulsive to have something open-ended to work on every day without any kind of structure or deadline or rules.” McCaughan leaned into allowing randomness and accidents to catalyze his compositions. Where a guitar riff might typically start a Superchunk song, an indistinguishable loop found on an old sampler dictates the mood on “Found Cricket,” and simply opening up his studio to the woods outside channels Another Green World on “36 and Rain.” Instrumentals make up nearly half of The Sound of Yourself, and are integral to the album’s atmosphere. While the pop-oriented tracks hint at sounds explored on Non-Believers, McCaughan’s recent scoring work and frequent excursions with synthesizers and sequencers (see: the Moogfest commissioned POMS and his ambient project with Mary Lattimore) add a particularly crystalline spaciness akin to The Durutti Column and Bowie’s Berlin trilogy. A sloping new wave bassline grounds the catchy “Circling Around” as McCaughan rejects rumination with cleverly cyclical lyrics and a few strategically placed “whoa”s. The warbled synthetic voices emanating from the Mellotron on “Sleep Donor” are already singing isolation blues well before McCaughan frets, “I hear a footstep in the hall when there should be no one there at all…” These could be the same ghostly sounds “softer than the light, under the door” he describes in “I Hear a Radio,” a track on which Michael Benjamin Lerner (Telekinesis) and Annie Hayden (Spent) provide shimmering vocal harmonies.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e For a record titled The Sound of Yourself, the irony in having many contributions from friends is not lost on McCaughan: “I’m constantly inspired by the work of my peers. I feel lucky to be able to collaborate with them despite the distances between us. Sending off a song into the ether and having it returned greatly improved and in often surprising and moving ways was one of the most satisfying aspects of making this record.” Additional guest appearances include Sabrina Ellis (A Giant Dog, Sweet Spirit), Mackenzie Scott of TORRES, plus three moody saxophone tracks that Matt Douglas of the Mountain Goats offered McCaughan, layered on top of one another. Mary Lattimore introduces and concludes The Sound of Yourself with her singular harp playing. The bittersweet single “Dawn Bends” is bolstered not only by Superchunk drummer Jon Wurster but the esteemed trio of Yo La Tengo on bass, organ, guitar, and vocals.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e The album’s title track asks, “Do you ever get used to the sound of yourself?” For an artist like Mac McCaughan, the answer lies in experimentation—testing his voice in a different light, deconstructing it, sometimes relegating it elsewhere or removing it altogether as the piece dictates. He knows that within the creative pursuit of an album as illuminating as The Sound of Yourself, familiarity reveals itself in the unknown.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eTracklist\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSIDE A\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cem\u003eMoss Light\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cem\u003eThe Sound of Yourself\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cem\u003eI Hear a Radio\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cem\u003e36 and Rain\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cem\u003eBurn a Fax\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e \u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSIDE B\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cem\u003eGen Ash\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cem\u003eCircling Around\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cem\u003eR Dream\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cem\u003eSleep Donor\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cem\u003eDawn Bends\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cem\u003eFound Cricket\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eSoundwave\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ehttps:\/\/youtu.be\/9cH5kTwPpCk\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Cargo","offers":[{"title":"CD","offer_id":39976069333039,"sku":"MRG783CD","price":11.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0096\/1884\/9839\/products\/https-_youtu.be_9cH5kTwPpCk.jpg?v=1626876682"},{"product_id":"xvi","title":"XVI","description":"\u003ch5\u003eProduct Info\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLimited LP\u003c\/strong\u003e : Seafoam Green Vinyl\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eMore Info\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSinger\/songwriter and guitarist Jayan Bertrand, bassist Josh Ewers, electronic drummer Josue Vargas and guitarist Dion Kerr have coined new genre “Caribbean Jazzgaze” to describe their wholly unique combination of jazz, shoegaze, rock, hip hop, and Afro-Caribbean rhythms that is Seafoam Walls.Seafoam Walls caught the attention of cultish music and art communities around South Florida with a soundtrack befitting of their dark tropical paradise, and have remained a Miami secret since 2016.

They’ve also shared stages with the likes of Michael Rother (Neu), Wire, Hawkwind and Endless Boogie and played at a number of international festivals, including Roskilde, The Great Escape, Eurosonic, Icelandic Airwaves and two stops at SXSW. Returning to London-based label Fuzz Club for the ‘Horizons’ LP, Electric Eye first started working on the new album back in June 2018 when they retreated to Utsira, a small island located 70km off the coast of Norway and surrounded by notoriously unpredictable and tough waters. Here, they spent a week jamming day and night in the island’s lighthouse.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e“Our only audience were the seagulls and some lost bird-watchers wondering where these strange noises were coming from,” the band recall: “We were surrounded by an unusually quiet ocean, almost eyeballing us waiting for the next eruption. The wild nature was omnipresent and could not be ignored as jam sessions got more intense and songs started to materialise. In our coffee breaks we were watching documentaries like ‘Into the Inferno’ by Werner Herzog and old explorer series by Captain Jacques Cousteau and the rest of the crew at the Calypso. The epic commentaries of Herzog and Cousteau were included in the jams to add to the vibe, and some of the sounds are still present on the final record. After a week off the grid we returned to civilization with hours of recordings inspired by volcano eruptions, sub-sea adventures and the raw power of the surrounding sea.”\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eTracklist\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e1) En Bekymringsfri Koloni \u003cbr\u003e2) Last Call At The Infinity Pool \u003cbr\u003e3) The Sleeping Sharks \u003cbr\u003e4) Our Water Is On Fire \u003cbr\u003e5) Put The Secret In Your Pocket \u003cbr\u003e6) Lighthouse Rock \u003cbr\u003e7) Den Atomosfaeriske Elven \u003cbr\u003e8) The Singularity\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cem\u003e \u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eSoundwave\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ehttps:\/\/youtu.be\/tfSGhStCXsA\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Cargo","offers":[{"title":"LP","offer_id":40038024445999,"sku":"FC146V12","price":9.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"Deluxe LP (Red Vinyl) SOLD OUT","offer_id":40038024413231,"sku":"FC146V12DE","price":28.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0096\/1884\/9839\/products\/ElectricEye_Horizons.jpg?v=1630572588"},{"product_id":"concession-stand-girl","title":"Concession Stand Girl","description":"\u003ch5\u003eProduct Info\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLimited 12\"\u003c\/strong\u003e : Red Vinyl\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eMore Info\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e“I think my music provides space for me to say the things I can’t always say in real life.” says Virginia native songwriter and multi-media artist Corrinne James. “That’s what I love about songwriting—There’s room in music for all of the conversations that can’t exist in reality.”\u003cspan class=\"Apple-converted-space\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p3\"\u003eWhile studying New Media and Cinematography at the University of Virginia, James created a secret Bandcamp under the alias Naomi Alligator, and began uploading her intimate home recordings online.

James examines the fleeting nature of ambition and asks what really creates the feeling of contentment. Describing the song’s lyrics James says, “You can achieve everything you want, but sometimes it doesn’t feel like anything compared to just feeling at home and feeling who you are deep down.”\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eTracklist\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003col class=\"ol1\"\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"li1\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003eConcession Stand Girl\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"li1\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003eMomma\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"li1\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003eAnywhere Else\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"li1\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"s2\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003eBig Blue World\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eSoundwave\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ehttps:\/\/youtu.be\/eu7ZN5a3xic\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"SRD","offers":[{"title":"Limited 12\" (Red Vinyl)","offer_id":40059212660783,"sku":"CAK153","price":6.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0096\/1884\/9839\/products\/NaomiAlligator_ConcessionStandGirl.jpg?v=1631713118"},{"product_id":"kingdom-of-heaven","title":"Kingdom Of Heaven","description":"\u003ch5\u003eProduct Info\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLimited LP: \u003c\/strong\u003eClear Vinyl\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eMore Info\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFormer 4AD labelmates Ian Masters (Pale Saints) and Warren Defever (His Name Is Alive) use a classic song by the 13th Floor Elevators as a starting point and over the course of a record see it disintegrate as they beam into the heart of the sun.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor fans of Flying Saucer Attack, Texas psych, Matsuo Ono, A.R.

Moss is by now a seasoned practitioner of immersive isolation music; across three previously acclaimed solo records of minimal and maximal post-classicism, her acoustic, amplified, and electronically-shifted violin is the raw material for deeply expressive, palpably haunted, wholly committed compositions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eBut Phosphenes inscribes fleeting halos of refracted ghostly light out of a prevailing darkness with especially plangent determination and intensity.

Signal processing is kept to a minimum in the three-movement “Contemplation” suite on Side One, where Moss deploys amplification chiefly in the service of activating overtones and pitch-shifts, thickening and widening the sonics, carving out her unique timbral space.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eBased on a four-note sequence that sets whole tones against one another, “Contemplation” is a bona fide requiem that finds Moss at her most instrumentally naturalistic, measured, and modern. Side Two unfolds in a more foreboding vein: “Let Down” is marked by cavernous octave-dropped arco and pizzicato, providing a gothically-inflected substratum upon which hauntingly wordless vocal invocations and cumulative gyres of violin melody unfurl.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e“Distortion Harbour” grinds with noisier grit and a more harrowing complexion, highlighting Moss’s ambient-metal sensibility and her distinctive palette of industrial-inflected power electronics a reminder of why she’s also been a go-to player on albums by the likes of Big Brave, Oiseaux-Tempête and Zu in recent years.

Everyone has been trying to find a way through and out of pandemic, lockdown, social isolation and often darkened hope and for many musicians, the absence of touring, of live performance, live sound, live audiences, and a living.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eFor Moss, it’s also been “like when you press your fists hard against your eyes and eventually there is fireworks.” The light gets in where it can, even or maybe especially as imaginative sensory simulacra (if\/when we shut down our screens and are left to our own devices).

Seriously, who would expect two instrumentalists to create such a large and complex sound? But thanks to inventive arrangements and a masterful use of looping, Kristian Dunn (bass\/guitar) and Tim Fogarty (drums) developed a pulsating sound full of atmospheric intensity. They’ve also crafted an incredibly durable career, and the duo credit the ongoing interest in their debut album as the foundation for that success. The music of El Ten Eleven has been embraced by fans of many genres - from math rock, to jazz, to lo-fi hip-hop. The duo's sound is sharply evocative in mood and feeling, yet simultaneously abstract and meditative. The combination of these qualities has stimulated the imagination of the group's fans, and gives space for listeners to assign their own value and meaning to the sounds. \"I'm aiming for emotional impact when I come up with songs,\" Dunn explained. \"Does it move me? Does it make me feel something? Sometimes it doesn't. Sometimes it's technically interesting but it doesn't make me feel anything. But I don't want music that's interesting.

Where Market’s previous home recorded releases shifted genre restlessly, on The Consistent Brutal Bullshit Gong Mendelsohn took a core band of longtime collaborators to a house in rural Massachusetts where they carved out space for his words to speak through with humour and intensity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThough he comes from a background in experimental music, Mendelsohn’s ear for pop has prevailed. Certain moments on Bullshit Gong reveal his stranger side, as on the thundering bridge of “Scar,” which sounds like a more unhinged Parquet Courts, or the angular “I Would Do That,” which takes cues from Cate Le Bon. On the whole, though, this band of close friends insists on directness, their arrangements clear despite the intricacies. Guitars and synthesisers tangle fluidly atop the rhythm section’s tight bedrock, evoking the tenderness and backbeat-centric qualities of Elliott Smith or Big Thief.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAfter college, where he met most of the members of Market, Mendelsohn became an engineer and producer at the Brooklyn studio Figure 8 Recording. Through that community he’s recorded artists like Frankie Cosmos and Wendy Eisenberg, and played with Yaeji, Vagabon, Katie Von Schleicher (who co-produced Bullshit Gong with him), and Sam Evian, who mixed the album.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCreating intimacy out of manic self-reflection requires a delicate balancing act, one Mendelsohn tackles with abandon. His words never skew too poetic or grandiose, and when he invokes the ugly it’s met with a sonic tonality that sets him right again. In tender moments, his voice is often flanked by bandmates Natasha Thweatt or Von Schleicher, who help skew his words toward the universal. Still, Bullshit Gong is an obsessive look inward, one in which Mendelsohn simply asks himself if he is good to those he loves. It’s an act of trust between the artist and the imagined listener he takes with him.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eTracklist\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e01 Bag Of Jeans \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cem\u003e02 Scar \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cem\u003e03 Looking Back \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cem\u003e04 Watergate \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cem\u003e05 I Would Do That \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cem\u003e06 Old \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cem\u003e07 Control \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cem\u003e08 NBA \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cem\u003e09 Therapy \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cem\u003e10 Little Wants\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eSoundwave\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ehttps:\/\/youtu.be\/g5SSk649Xfw\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Cargo","offers":[{"title":"Limited LP (Transparent Dark Blue Vinyl)","offer_id":40545315225647,"sku":"WV233LPC1","price":9.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"CD","offer_id":40545315258415,"sku":"WV233CD","price":11.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0096\/1884\/9839\/products\/Market-TheConsistentBrutalBullshitGong.jpg?v=1645009925"},{"product_id":"who-do-you-pray-to","title":"Who Do You Pray To?","description":"\u003ch5\u003eProduct Info\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLimited LP\u003c\/strong\u003e : Yellow Vinyl\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLP\u003c\/strong\u003e : Standard Black Vinyl\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eMore Info\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003eFrom his humble beginnings busking on the streets of Brigh\u003c\/span\u003eton, EP ‘who do you pray to?’ is set to continue Sam’s momentum and his rise on the international pop stage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eMatching pop touches to a classic feel, he’s often compared to Sam Fender’s anthemic truth-seeking or Tom Walker’s revelatory autobiography.

For a group that started over an initial idea to \"create open ended music, quickly and haphazardly”, the logistical challenges of creating their second album in the midst of a pandemic, in a city that endured the longest lockdown in the world, created a need to redefine process. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLevity, The Stroppies strongest creative statement to date, is the result of this new approach to creative process. Playful yet focused, but broader in scope and experimentation than previous efforts, the ten songs that comprise Levity continue the band's exploration of the pop song as both foil for experimentation and conduit for personal reflection.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhereas the group's debut LP Whoosh! demonstrated their ability to craft clean, concise jangle pop, Levity takes a different route by utilizing a darker pallet of sounds to create its impressionistic whole. Fuzz and distortion are employed to add weight to songs built on tape loops and Motorik drum patterns. Warbling synthesisers and modulated keys add new moods and dimensions to The Stroppies unique brand of pop classicism. Thematically, the band continues their exploration of the personal refracted through the lens of the absurd, though this time around the music feels a few shades darker, a somewhat inevitable consequence of the collective trauma of the past 24 months. The songs still hit with the immediacy that made their debut so engaging, but there’s a creeping cynicism and wistfulness that now permeates The Stroppies sound.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhile the narrative around the 'lockdown record' is increasingly commonplace, there are unavoidable realities involved in making creative decisions under such circumstances that can't be overlooked, especially for a band that thrives on collaboration.  \"The restrictions around COVID really informed the way we made the record', says Angus Lord, the band's co-founder and guitarist. \"It meant that there was a lot less opportunity to meet and build ideas collaboratively, which is how we’ve worked in the past. Instead, ideas were developed in isolation, then shared digitally, developing slowly over correspondence and only bearing fruit when we were able to be in a room together. I think this had a big effect on the songwriting and execution.” This process even extended to the studio, where The Stroppies found a kindred spirit in John Lee of Phaedra Studios, who mixed the record in isolation, somehow managing to synthesise the band's pop sensibilities with their penchant for studio experimentation. Furthermore, the addition of new member Zoe Monk, known for playing in a diverse array of Melbourne acts (Eggy, Thibault, The Opals) contributed both synthesiser experimentation and rock solid rhythm guitar, a huge addition to the band's developing sound, an infectious combination of the off-kilter 90s US underground, British artpunk ala Wire and a more than generous love of classic Pop songwriting. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eReflecting on the making of the record, bassist and co-vocalist Claudia Serfaty understands their shift in approach, noting that, “the world feels strange and in turn making pop music feels even stranger. A healthy dose of levity had to be employed in order to find meaning in the process.”  In spite of this light hearted attitude, The Stroppies have managed to craft a record of weight and substance.Through Levity the Stroppies have, at least temporarily, found their feet amongst the chaos..\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eTracklist\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cem\u003e The Perfect Crime (04:40)\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cem\u003e Smilers Strange Politely (02:49) \u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cem\u003e Material Condition (05:24)\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cem\u003e Butchering the Punchline (02:07)\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cem\u003e Up to My Elbows (03:28)\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cem\u003e I’m In The Water (03:51)\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cem\u003e Tricks On Everything (02:33)\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cem\u003e Caveats (03:06)\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cem\u003e Figure Eights (02:57)\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cem\u003e The Bell (02:08)\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eSoundwave\u003c\/h5\u003e","brand":"Cargo","offers":[{"title":"Limited LP (Clear Vinyl)","offer_id":40568993447983,"sku":"TLV158LPXX","price":9.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"LP","offer_id":40568993480751,"sku":"TLV158LP","price":21.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"CD","offer_id":40568993513519,"sku":"TLV158CD","price":11.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0096\/1884\/9839\/products\/Stroppies-Levity.jpg?v=1645614407"},{"product_id":"turn-right-and-right-again","title":"TURN RIGHT AND RIGHT AGAIN","description":"\u003ch5\u003eMore Info\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTurn Right and Right Again was written in between lockdowns then recorded in May by super-producer\/mixer David Wrench, one half of audiobooks and known for his work with Frank Ocean, the xx, Caribou, David Byrne, Manic Street Preachers and Goldfrapp, at his studio in Hackney.

The album, his first for Colemine\/Karma Chief Records, is another masterclass in home recording with 12 shimmering slices of purely perfect psychedelic pop. In describing Perkins, it’s not wrong to namecheck Rhodes and Nilsson, but you have to expand that list of influences to include pop-rock visionaries like Brian Wilson, Colin Blunstone, and even John Lennon and Paul McCartney. Let’s also throw in the Flying Burrito Brothers and the Kinks as well. Perkins clearly learned plenty of helpful tips from these and other legends that made the late 1960s and early 1970s such a magical musical time, but he has charted his own singular path from the past and back again. The hooks, arrangements, and overall sense of songcraft are as sophisticated as the work of Wilson and Nilsson, which is remarkable when you consider Perkins not only produced all of the musical arrangements but also played all of the instruments and sang all of the vocal parts on the album. Even more impressive, Perkins is able to evoke all of these iconic figures in his songs without resorting to psych-rock cliches or outright thievery. It’s an extraordinary balancing act, and what emerges is a shimmering tapestry of skillfully-woven musical threads, each harkening back to the past while simultaneously pointing toward the future.

Keep This Be the Way is Helms Alee’s sixth full-length and first new album in over 3 years. Across the span of their first five studio albums, Seattle trio Helms Alee have consistently refined their signature sound—a blend of lilting siren songs, crushing thunder and sludge, and heady guitar pop filled with lush guitars and elaborate three-part vocal harmonies that reach widely across various subgenres of the heavy music world. On their latest album, Keep This Be the Way, the band expanded their palette by delving into the production possibilities afforded by recording the album themselves, creating their most dynamic and technicoloured work to date. Guitarist\/vocalist Ben Verellen, bassist\/vocalist Dana James, and drummer\/vocalist Hozoji Matheson-Margullis found refuge during the pandemic in their music and bunkered down in a makeshift studio in Verellen’s amplifier shop, recording songs with the assistance of Ron Harrell as they were writing them, composing the material with the added benefit of hearing them come together from the engineer’s chair. Keep This Be the Way still very much sounds like a Helms Alee record, but it’s their first album that diverts from the faithful recreation of their live sound and delves into a vibrant tapestry of surreal sounds and invented spaces. This new approach is immediately evident on first single “See Sights Smell Smells,” where reverse cymbal crashes, fragmented piano, layered drums, woozy drones, saxophone freak-outs, and trippy vocal treatments transport the listener to an altered state of exhilarated anticipation. The pendulum swings towards more adventurous and exploratory sounds on songs like “Tripping Up the Stairs”, it’s nightmarish synth glides pitted against distorted barrages steeped in classic Helms Alee timbre. And therein lies the power of the Keep Us Be the Way: it reflects a period of change, ambiguity and perseverance through its fearless curiosity, cathartic rumble, and sublime beauty. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eTracklist\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e1.

Familiar Science rallies contributions from a larger cast of musicians into a looser, cosmic recombinant combo still shot through with JOYFULTALK’s singular mixing desk kinetics, but this time deep-diving into gnarled and twisted, spliced and diced out-jazz. Crocker draws inspiration from 1980s M-Base music and Ornette Coleman’s harmolodic funk period, while his own prior history as an improv guitarist also resurfaces for the first time in many years. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFamiliar Science finds Crocker folding time (as lockdown will do), immersed in his present-day kaleidoscope of solitary art and music practices in rural Nova Scotia, while channeling his former life as a bustling jazz collaborator in Calgary, Alberta. Building outwards from roiling resampled acoustic drums, Crocker extracted additional sonic and rhythmic textures, then formed the head of each song using dusted-off archival recordings and his own bass, keys and midi sequencing. Albertan percussionists Eric Hamelin (Ghostkeeper, Chad Vangaalen) and Chris Dadge (Lab Coast, Alvvays) provided improvised drum tracks to be chopped and harvested; Nova Scotia-based Nicola Miller (Ryan Driver, Doug Tielli) laid down resplendent excursions on saxophone and flute; Crocker’s own dexterous guitar appears on several cuts. Familiar Science also poignantly features samples from live recordings by the late Calgary saxophonist iconoclast Dan Meichel, catalysing some of the album’s heaviest contortions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCrocker weaves all these raw materials into exuberant compositions that blur the line between sizzling corporeal combo and sampledelic futurist jamz, variously conjuring (leftfield) Flying Lotus, (later) Tortoise, BADBADNOTGOOD and Squarepusher’s Music Is Rotted One Note. The rubbery hyper-compression of boom-bap opener “Body Stone” initiates the séance, and the album offers a panoply of skittering grooves and soaring melodic pathways thereafter. Crocker’s own wordless stacked vocals are the giddy secret sauce on several cuts, and his lead guitar work (in kinship with the lean progressions of Mary Halvorson or Jeff Parker) features on “Take It To The Grave”, “Stop Freaking Out!” and the album’s title track. More honeyed passages on songs like “Blissed For A Minute” and “Ballad In 9” center around Miller’s bouyant alto sax and flute.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFamiliar Science is a rousing feast of noise-tinged polychrome electronic avant-jazz: richly harmolodic compositions teeming with intersecting textures and turbulences; exploratory, exhilarated and indeed joyful.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eTracklist\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e01.

That the album is more cinematic in its scope and conceptual in feel than his previous studio albums can be attributed to the time he spent over the past several years composing the soundtrack for the independent film, Viewfinder. Voyeurs In the Dark retains that cinematic quality, and at the same time infuses the music with elements taken from Jazz, electronica, rock and pop. Having primarily explored the quiet side pop and folk in his previous four albums, Barzin has expanded his musical palate, broadening his sound towards a more an experimental direction, while still retaining his preoccupation with exploring the internal landscape. The uniformity of sound that characterized the previous albums has been abandoned for the expression of differing aspects of the self that at times hold opposing views and desires. This is best represented in the image chosen for the cover of the album, which depicts three figures in one body. The album seems to be the expression of not one unified self, but the various aspects of the self. Voyeurs In the Dark sees the artist plot a seductive, contemplative route through city haze, shuttling between graceful glimmering interludes, with wonderfully atmospheric songs at every stop. From opener Voyeurs In the Dark’s first guitar strums and the fizz of its drum machine, the record envelopes itself in a glorious shadow, as shown in the slow waltz of I Don’t Want To Sober Up, dancing around its own swirling guitar chords. On Watching, Barzin plunges himself deeper into a wash of cyclic bass, guitar and synth riffs, as the gloom grooves into light. It’s Never Too Late To Lose Your Life has a much more affirming and urgent tone, shade turning into shapes and motion, while To Be Missed In the End builds its own smoke in a cloud of saxophone and sparse guitar notes, closing out a record full to the brim with scatterbrain beauty and eclectic dusk.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eTracklist\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e1.

Retreating into her songwriting, Gabi started sketching out songs about escape and exploring vulnerability. Demoing the arrangements at home then honing the songs with her band The Illuminations as soon as rehearsal studios opened up, they created an explosive album of indie pop bangers that have lyrical and musical depth. As the opening song ‘Bad Boy Bird’ announces “I am no human, I am the promise of dynamite”, Gabi and her band summon up a volcanic concoction of sounds, from the poetic punk sensibilities of Ezra Furman and Patti Smith, the soaring alt pop of The Voidz and The Flaming Lips, to Motown inspired soul stompers, the record conjures up a range of atmospheres to occupy the listeners mind over many, many replays, as they fall deeper into the universe that is Cockerel. Connecting again with multi-instrumentalist and producer Sean Read (Beth Orton, Edwyn Collins, The Pretenders) at his Famous Times Studio Gabi set to work bringing their songs to life on record. Upcoming single ‘Subterranean Stars’, one of the most representative songs on the album, catchy guitar licks flutter around trippy lyrical musings, brass refrains and a soaring string arrangement played by Basia Bartz. Following this slice of shimmering pop is ‘Genet’s Journey.’ We meet for the first time the baritone sax of Sean Read that provides a gorgeous guttural intro that wouldn’t feel out of place on a Bowie track. Next we find the first single from this album, ‘Never Never’ Gabi draws inspiration from Van Gogh and guitarist for Lou Reed and Richard Hell, Robert Quine. Gabi says, “Van Gogh \u0026amp; Robert Quine are both people that I admire artistically and who sadly took their own life.Side A of the 12” ends on a more intimate note with ‘Your Blues’, a song about looking out for one another and set in a dive bar suspended somewhere between heaven and hell. Opening Side B we get the sure fire single, “I Can’t Win.” In this darkly intense yet euphoric track, Gabi broaches the topic of mental health. The song draws on her own experiences, ‘that if you lean into the mania and try to draw creativity from the manic energy, it can be a destructive path.’ In Habit of Sadness, Gabi explores the merciless nature of depression and calls it ‘a song of solidarity, an awareness that a lot of people are going through a hard time and that we need to remember this and be gentle with each other.’ Sea Organ is inspired by a trip to Zadar in Croatia where there’s an organ carved into the rocks, so as the waves come in and crash around in the organ, an ethereal melancholy melody rings out. Angel of Third Avenue is a Springsteen-esque rock n roll odyssey. Our Dying World closes the album. A song that started out as being about the discrete suffering of animals and birds in the city, Gabi soon realised she was writing a song about climate change \/\/ ‘This will be amongst the best new tunes you hear all day, all week, maybe even ever.’ Chris Hawkins, BBC6 Music \/\/ “Lyrically, it’s at a level you rarely hear […] consistently brilliant and unpredictable lyrics” Cerys Matthews, BBC6 music \/\/ “A damn fine pop record” Steve Lamacq, BBC6 Music \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eTracklist\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e1 Cockerel \u003cbr\u003e2 Bad Boy Bird \u003cbr\u003e3 Subterranean Stars \u003cbr\u003e4 Genet’s Journey \u003cbr\u003e5 Never Never \u003cbr\u003e6 Your Blues \u003cbr\u003e7 I Can’t Win \u003cbr\u003e8 Habit of Sadness \u003cbr\u003e9 Sea Organ \u003cbr\u003e10 Angel Of Third Avenue \u003cbr\u003e11 Our Dying World\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eSoundwave\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/hhGTsysR8oU\"\u003ehttps:\/\/youtu.be\/hhGTsysR8oU\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Cargo","offers":[{"title":"LP (Blue Vinyl)","offer_id":40778402168879,"sku":"TAR050VX","price":9.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"CD","offer_id":40778402201647,"sku":"TAR050CD","price":6.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0096\/1884\/9839\/products\/192289-gabi-garbutt-the-illuminations-cockerel.jpg?v=1649770423"},{"product_id":"the-haunt","title":"The Haunt","description":"\u003ch5\u003eProduct Info\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMulti-instrumentalist, songwriter, and producer Mitch Davis steps out on his own with debut LP The Haunt, a singer-songwriter tour de force for which he wrote all the songs and played all the instruments, made in his home studio during the 2020 lockdown, with much of it recorded on equipment that he also built himself. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDavis is a mainstay of the vibrant Montréal music scene, with a musical background encompassing everything from rock bands (Faith Healer) to avant-garde (Elle Barbara's Black Space) to jazz and hip-hop (Cadence Weapon). The Haunt is a synthesis of his many musical interests, stretching back to his childhood when he played drums in the church band and saxophone in his school band (he plays both on The Haunt.) Though he’s never had any formal musical training, Davis can’t remember a time in which music wasn’t a part of his life. When it came time to make his own record, Davis says: “I was always hoping I could fnd a way to blend everything together and get away with doing a bunch of different genres all at once, because I don’t like dwelling on a certain sound.” \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDespite so much going on behind the scenes, nothing about The Haunt sounds overworked. A breezy, upbeat listen, it’s very much in tune with the spirit of 70s pop that Davis loves for the way it strikes a balance between musicality and catchiness, complexity and brevity. These are composed, layered songs made with care, but also made to make you smile.

Re-immersing himself in those recordings, Gowdy disassembles and deploys them as raw source material for new experiments with vactrols, noise gates and analog-to-digital triggering and aliasing, the original recordings juxtaposed anew amidst their successive textural and rhythmic treatments. Gowdy keeps this re-composition process stripped down, elemental and purposive, guided by an ascetic Aufhebung: synthesis as sublation—subjecting a temporal material\/theme to analysis and transformation, reintegrating to form a whole that overcomes what it preserves without erasure, reshaping and intrinsically carrying its origins forward.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eWhere Therapy With Colour was strictly and rigorously a set of stereo live performances, Miracles fuses iterative—though still spartan—layers of performance. “Therapy With Colour was about healing through self-hypnosis; Miracles is about forging a future with memory through subjection to trigger mechanisms” notes Gowdy.

Gowdy consistently heats and heightens the presence of each component in the mix, balancing different elements in democratic compression\/distortion, attaining an unornamental and earnest form of mantric-industrial majesty.

As a kid, watching his dad recording and overdubbing inspired Wren to keep a tape recorder with him, recording whatever and wherever he could. Later, he would compare the layering of instruments and textures to the mediums and paints of his mother’s chosen artform. For Wren, songwriting became “painting with sound”, using light, shade and a sense of space to communicate powerful impressions and feelings.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWren brought this schooling to gorgeous fruition across his first three albums, initially available on Bandcamp and now released on vinyl through Bella Union Private Pressings. Made with an eco-friendly manufacturing company, each record will be available as a special edition limited to 200 copies, available through mail order and the Bella Union store. Either way, the trilogy plots the growth curve of a major talent, released in readiness for the now Bella Union-signed artist’s incoming fourth album. The first of the three retroactive releases will be “A Child’s Chant For The New Millennium”.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWren Hinds brought fresh thematic cogency to his third album, recorded in early 2020. The linking matter is his unerring ability to apply himself to each new situation, in this case a longing for connection – to humanity, nature – in a world tilted towards digital disconnection. While the lockdowns intensified the album’s dystopian fears, the beauty and artistry in Wren’s songcraft counterpoint the shadows eloquently. The title-track laments “digital modification” over gamelan-ish flutters across six delicate minutes. All spectral voices and pining, ‘Sign of Life’ yearns for “some act of human kindness” to a wind-caressed cowboy lollop. ‘The Pearl’ longs for blissful quietude, while ‘Wrenbird’ evokes Sam Beam at his dreamiest. ‘River’s Song’ adds soft, sure layers of accordion and guitar, before ‘The Path’ marshals misty harmonies and finger-picked guitar for a gentle declaration of resistance. “Bang your freedom drum,” sings Wren, mapping out a singular path with understated assurance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eTracklist\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e1.A Child's Chant for the New Millennium \u003cbr\u003e2.Sign of Life \u003cbr\u003e3.The Pearl \u003cbr\u003e4.Wrenbird \u003cbr\u003e5.River's Song \u003cbr\u003e6.The Path \u003cbr\u003e7.Conclusion\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"PROMO","offers":[{"title":"Limited LP","offer_id":41006728642607,"sku":"BELLA1267V","price":9.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0096\/1884\/9839\/products\/hinds_f206428f-801a-4d1f-b4a7-e813d5125587.jpg?v=1656675302"}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0096\/1884\/9839\/collections\/autumn_sale.jpg?v=1664900774","url":"https:\/\/sisterray.co.uk\/collections\/autumn-sale.oembed?page=2","provider":"Sister Ray","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
